M710 Compact SM and MM OTDRs

The AFL M710 OTDR from AFL combines ease of use (Touch and
Test™) and functionality in a field-rugged, hand-held package. With
single-mode dynamic ranges up to 40 dB and multimode dynamic ranges
of 26 dB, the M710 OTDR is ideal for testing and troubleshooting
LAN/WAN, metro, FTTx and long haul networks. Industry leading dead
zones of less than 1.0 m enhance users' ability to locate and
measure events. Testing at 1310 and 1550 nm is normally sufficient
to certify point-to-point or FTTx PON fibers and allows the
detection of macrobends.

The M710 supports Full Auto, Expert (manual) and Real-Time OTDR
test modes, precision event analysis, multi-wavelength testing, and
visual inspection per 61300-3-35 using the DFS1 Digital FiberScope
allowing users the ability to view and document connector end-face
images with their OTDR traces. Pass/Fail acceptance to TIA/ISO
values or user-defined values can be set to alert the test operator
of failing or marginal events. These capabilities simplify the user
experience, reduce training time and testing errors enabling even
novices to get the job done quickly and accurately.

Thousands of OTDR test results may be saved as standard .SOR files
and stored internally or on the supplied USB drive. Test results
are transferable via a USB cable or USB drive to a computer for
viewing, printing, and analyzing with the supplied Windows®
compatible software, Test Results Manager (TRM™). Saved OPM loss
values for a cable in one or two directions can be displayed in a
table on the M710 for evaluation and comparison. Acceptance reports
generated using TRM can include Loss tables, OTDR traces with
summary and event information with or without pass/fail indication
and Channel Maps.

With a full set of testing tools including OTDR, OPM, VFL and
end-face inspection capability the M710 is a complete solution for
fiber network owners and installers.
